Voters in the 55th Assembly District will get their first chance to hear from all six candidates seeking the seat in the state legislature during a candidates forum the morning of Nov. 15. The event is being hosted by California State University, Dominguez Hills and the Carson Chamber of Commerce.


The 55th Assembly District seat became vacant in August when then-representative Laura Richardson won her bid to represent the 37th Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives. A special

election is scheduled for December 11, 2007.
 

Vying to represent the cities of Carson, Torrance, Harbor City, Wilmington, Long Beach, Lakewood and Signal Hill in the state Assembly are Los Angeles Community College Board of Trustee Warren Furutani, management consultant Mervin Leon Evans, Carson City Councilman Mike Gipson, Long Beach businesswoman Evelyn D. Robertson, retired aerospace engineer Herb Peters, and Long Beach resident and nurse Charlotte Sadiyah Gibson.
 

During the forum, the candidates will field questions from members of the audience, who will be handed comment cards as they arrive, on which to submit their questions. A continental breakfast will be served at the forum and parking will be free in Lot 3.

As the chief elections officer, Secretary Bowen is responsible for overseeing state and federal elections, a role that also requires her to test and certify the voting equipment used in California.
